BayesBuilder: Introduction to Bayesian networks (2005)

The practicum uses BayesBuilder, a tool for modeling and inferencing in Bayesian networks. You have to install the software yourself (it is easy). Go to the BayesBuilder home page and install version 1.1.28 with auto-installer. The auto-installer starts BayesBuilder automatically. Then proceed as indicated in the manual (ignore the text about the Bayesbuilder directory and BayesBuilder.exe)
